The RTX 5080 and RTX 5090 have dominated the spotlight for Nvidia’s 50-series launch, but for gamers unwilling to drop over $1,000 on a GPU, the RTX 5070 Ti stands out as a more appealing option. Positioned as a high-performance midrange option, the latest GPU is said to offer a significant upgrade over the previous generation and is more or less a cut-down version of the RTX 5080.

But how does it stack up against the RTX 4080 Super? Can it offer a better performance package at a lower price point? We break down the key differences to help you decide which one is right for you.

The RTX 5070 Ti will be available for purchase starting February 20 and comes with a suggested retail price of $750. Considering the launch pricing and limited availability of the RTX 5090 and RTX 5080, the RTX 5070 Ti will likely see inflated prices at release, with limited stock making it harder to find. At the time of writing, the cheapest RTX 5070 Ti that we could spot was on Best Buy retailing at $900.

Meanwhile, the RTX 4080 Super launched in January 2024 with a starting price of $999. After one whole year of its launch, the GPU is nowhere to be seen with limited stock and prices going upwards of $1,500.
